Effects of Supersonic speed by Passing Jets on wildlife...sonic boom occurs at low and high altitudes.?

Question

Canadian Forces jets flying from Cold Lake, Alberta are restricted from flying at supersonic speeds over certain areas. Discuss the possible effects on wildlife subjected to regular supersonic air traffic. Explain why high altitude supersonic flights affect a greater area but have a diminished impact. I need this by tomorrow, this question will be on my physics test on Sound and Waves. Thank you.

The altitude of the sonic boom is not very important. I need to know the EFFECTS of a supersonic jet and its sonic boom on wildlife that it is flying above of.

Answer 1

The animals get used to it. the higher they go, the less noise gets to the ground but the more area it covers.
